I discovered Northgate Park recently while training on the Ellerbe Creek Trail, which runs directly…read morethrough this rather large park. Honestly, I CAN'T believe I've never spotted or been to this park before, it is really lovely, and as a self-proclaimed park connoisseur, it's embarrassing that I've missed this location for so long! What you should know: the park is really large, split into four sections. The main section and largest part of the park is my personal favorite. It is one huge plot of land that is divided into two segments with a stream and forest area in the middle also connected by a foot bridge. On half of this area you have a paved running trail (the Ellerbe Creek Trail), which winds through the park with lots of tree coverage and benches to rest on if needed. The other half of this area houses two playgrounds (one more toddler focused and one for older children), drinking fountain, bike parking, baby swings, picnic tables and shelter, chess/checker board seating and grill area. There are several open fields in this area of the park, but none are large enough to be qualified as athletic fields. The other two sections of this park include a dog park across the street and two tennis courts (and bathroom facilities) that host a variety of neighborhood parties, including Northgate Park food truck rodeos. Northgate Park has a seemingly great neighborhood association which is very active. In addition to the neighborhood park food truck rodeos, they host holiday events: Easter egg hunts, Halloween trick-or-treat festivities, etc. Make this park a destination in itself, or visit before/after a trip to the Museum of Life and Science, accessible from the park by foot or car.
